Abstract

We present a linear system of difference equations whose entries are expressed in terms of theta functions. This linear system is singular at 4m+124m+12 points for m1m \geq 1, which appear in pairs due to a symmetry condition. We parameterize this linear system in terms a set of kernels at the singular points. We regard the system of discrete isomonodromic deformations as an elliptic analogue of the Garnier system. We identify the special case in which m=1m=1 with the elliptic Painlev\'e equation, hence, this work provides an explicit form and Lax pair for the elliptic Painlev\'e equation.
